Chinese president arrives in Hawaii for APEC

Chinese President Hu Jintao arrived on Oahu Thursday morning for the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Summit. His arrival shutdown major roads.

Jintao arrived at Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam around 8:30 a.m. prompting authorities to shutdown the H-1 Freeway while he was escorted to Waikiki.  The closures lasted for about a half hour.

Honolulu police have said only what they call the "high-three" will get such shutdowns when their officials are en route.  That’s China, Russia, or the U.S.
